[simpits-tech] Wiring harness layout board...

[cyplesma at aol.com]

Instead of using cable ties, I'm going to use waxed lacing tape, although 
I will use the cable ties when first starting to keep everything tight. 
They'll get clipped off as I work my way down the harness.


 

If their readily available you might want to look into the cable ties that can be released so you can use those to do the building and when your all set just replace them with permanent cable ties.

Ben, thanks for the description.  That is really close to the method I'm 
going to use.

I'm going to get all the measurements I need and then draw the layout 
outline in AutoCAD and then plot the layout full size.  I'll then use 3M 
77 spray adhesive to glue the plot to the board that I'll build the 
harness on.

You can expect an excruciatingly(sp!) detailed article on this once I've 
got all my research done. :)
